Texas A&M and Texas Tech are considering renewing the former Big 12 rivalry, according to Kirk Bohls of the Austin American-Statesman. Bohls spoke with Texas Tech AD Kirby Hocutt, who expressed mutual interest in making the game happen.

Nice chat with Texas Tech AD Kirby Hocutt. He said TT, A&M have “mutual interest” in scheduling football game “2020 or beyond.”

Former Texas A&M offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury is now the head coach at Texas Tech. While talks of Texas and Texas A&M renewing their rivalry have grown stale, the Aggies and Red Raiders rematch is gaining optimism. Texas A&M leads the series 37-32-1.

Tech is set to take on Arkansas this year in a premier non-conference bout.
